NeoGAF & ResetERA - The Hilarious N̶e̶v̶e̶r̶e̶n̶d̶i̶n̶g̶ Splintering "Gaming" Forum Circus

And we have lift off everyone!

The usual Resetera trend of allies embedding their own tweets to signal their worth. Red Arremer did his part, +1 respect from Finale Fireworker.


Let our friend know how fragile he is. A blackface Bandicoot

Waypoint/Vice are writing the article now which sources MAJOR CONCERN over on Resetera.com.

Would you believe it? Resetera post straight up fake news (OP posting "darkened" image) and then outrage about it. Enzom21 is probably blacker than this non-human furry. Even Bobby Roberts didn't blacken his avatars this much. The shirt is just a watermelon design.

Imagine my shock the lunatics rage as they did and then...

830165


They still want it changed anyway

:story:

The authoritarian moderators have decided this is racism, no questions to be asked. Get in line comrades or face the bullet.

The wrong-think whites are at it again, we need to destroy everyone at this studio.

Speaking of those damn whites, there's too many of them in Smash Bros too

Let's be honest though, not counting customizable characters, how many iconic black vidya characters are there? I can't remember any from the top of my head.

Shit I forgot about those. I'm not sure I'd count Alyx but for the sake of argument, let's count her anyway.

Would these characters, or any other iconic black characters, ever be viable for Smash? Like I don't ever see them putting in GTA or Valve characters and Square-Enix is already incredibly stingy with Final Fantasy content. I suppose you could argue the fact that there aren't many iconic black vidya characters is a problem if you really gave a shit about that kinda thing...

It's only a problem if you only care about black characters existing for the sake of being black characters. I just want well written characters, and if they happen to be black then that's jolly.

Another issue though is every character is basically classed as white unless they are African black. You need to be as dark as the night to get +1 representation.

So all the Japanese or Chinese characters are white. Then any diversity within European characters gets ignored as just being "another white male". Like what happened with Kingdom Come.

Any time Russians are in games it's just REEE white male. Impeach Donald Trump!

Diversity for Resetera doesn't mean what it might mean to normal people. Not when viewed through their ironic racist lens of everyone with light skin is the same and they have no cultural differences.

It's the same insanity going on with the LGBT community. Gay men are the devil, white or black, but mostly white. Gay white women are just as bad. Unless you are non-binary and gender fluid or a troon in 2019 no one cares. Gay men get the bullet and gay women aren't the real women, it's the MtF troons who are the voices we need to listen to now.

The end game for progressives is the battle royale where only the most victimised and oppressed is left standing to the cheers of "you're stunning and brave".

edit - If you want to see proof of the above in action, look how they're treating a literal animal in a kids game

Wrong-think. Watermelon is an insensitive phrase when paired with a light-skinned.... animal.

You heard it on Resetera. What are essentially big dogs can be racist. Dogs are racist.

"What's it supposed to change that this is a bandicoot with a t-shirt in a kart racing game and not some really black nigga from the hood chomping on watermelon called Shanice"

830606


Dear normie, you get the bullet for not being an unhinged lunatic about a kids kart racing game like your fellow 30+ year old men on Resetera. Most of whom will be white allies getting outraged for blacks.

830608



The grown men crying and literally shaking whilst smashing the report button. Incoming "sensitive topic" bans in a topic about bandicoots and kart racing.

This fucking forum.

830612


Grown men are crying about this. Just look at this literal black single mom trying to get by.

Isamu Fukui, enjoy smelling those dollars because your reputation and image are complete trash. The inmates have the keys to the asylum and you seem to approve.

"Instead of just using Captain Falcon though, they could've instead used Kate Alen or someone else. Lets be honest, nobody knew Captain Falcon before Super Smash Bros."

This made me incredibly mad instantly

Some of you need to go outside? Yeah, all of Resetera. Where else would you see 30+ year old men crying about a light colored bandicoot wearing a watermelon tshirt in a kids kart racing game?

:story:

"Whether or not our inmates are fucking insane and posting fake news does not dictate the validity of their concerns."

Straight up insanity.

Even bigger size of the terrorist image

I bet you PewDiePie is responsible for this hate crime. Stay safe Jussie Smollett and DigitalOP.

"Developers have no excuse including a watermelon t-shirt in a kids racing game, all watermelons are racist and the white man's weapon against people of color." - Resetera, 2019.

I'm happy someone is out there keeping cartoon video game bandicoots away for watermelons. That's the gateway to kids becoming Nazis. First they play Crash Team Racing, then they watch PewDiePie and the next thing you know all LGBTQIA2S+ and PoC are murdered in the fourth reich.

And then you get moon Nazis launching moon rocks at Earth more powerful than nuclear weapons with tracking that only targets troons.

Part of the issue here is that Nintendo has almost no black characters and the vast majority of Smash characters are from Nintendo franchises. In fact, the only black Nintendo characters I can think of off the top of my head come from Punch Out, and they'd all be alternate skins of Little Mac if they were added to Smash. The non-Nintendo franchises that are in Smash don't exactly have a lot of playable black characters either, and Nintendo likes to keep the number of characters they don't control to a minimum in Smash games.

You mean our forum going fucking insane over this is peak mental illness?

No, it's everyone else who is wrong! This is...

830715


Blatant racism against black men/women via the medium of a kart racing game for kids!

It's this all over again


These people are doomed to repeat history.
 
How could this man forget Smash already has a PoC rep?
View attachment 830248
Had. They reached out to Nintendo Treehouse to get that offensive image censored.
By that logic DK and Diddy should count too.
Put your hands together, if you want to clap,
As we take you through, this monkey rap.
Huh.

Kinda feels like the issue entirely lays on people being sensitive that a nation with less than 1% black representation in their country mirrors that in the entertainment they create.

Just stumbled across this video, doesn't that remind you of something ? It's basically Resetera most common tactic. It's crazy how people from the 60's already figured the world we live in.
